Hey everyone,
I noticed my 2021 Spectral was making squeeky noises when turning the front wheel and so I decided it was time to clean and regrease my bearings. After removing handlebar and fork, I found that the bottom bearing was rusty and barely moved. However, when I tried take them out, I noticed that I couldn't remove the bearings! I used moderate force (mostly grip strength) to try to pull them out, but to no avail.
Now, I was wondering whether they are just stuck and I need to use hammer and screwdriver to force them out, or if specialized tools would be needed for that. TBH, I'd prefer to fix the bike myself rather than bring it to a mechanic.
These are the bearings in question:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
